Introduction

1898: GioBatta Poli founds the Distillery in Schiavon (VI) and starts to distil using a mobile alembic with 3 boilers.

1921: he is succeeded by sons Giovanni, Beniamino and Pasquale Fortunato, who will open another two distilleries, in Castegnero (VI) and Curtarolo (PD). The company title will thus become “Poli Distilleries”, in the plural.
